TORTILLA DISH RECIPE RECIPES

Steps:

• Put a large non-stick frying pan on a low heat. Cook the onion slowly in the oil and butter until soft but not brown – this should take about 15 mins. Meanwhile, peel the tomatoes (if using) by scoring the skins with a cross, putting them in a bowl and pouring over just-boiled water. Drain the water after 2-3 mins and the skins will peel away easily. You can then coarsely grate them.
• Add the potatoes to the pan, then cover and cook for a further 15-20 mins, stirring occasionally to make sure they fry evenly. When the potatoes are soft and the onion is shiny, crush 2 garlic cloves and stir in, followed by the beaten eggs.
• Put the lid back on the pan and leave the tortilla to cook gently. After 20 mins, the edges and base should be golden, the top set but the middle still a little wobbly. To turn it over, slide it onto a plate and put another plate on top, turn the whole thing over and slide it back into the pan to finish cooking.
• Once cooked, transfer to a plate and serve the tortilla warm or cold, scattered with the chopped parsley. To accompany the tortilla, take slices of warmed baguette, stab all over with a fork and rub with the remaining garlic, pile on the grated tomatoes and season with sea salt and a drizzle of olive oil.

Steps:

• Sift flour in a large bowl. Add salt and sugar. Combine all together.
• Pour water and oil. Mix the ingredients with your hand to make the dough come together. Knead for 5 minutes.
• Separate dough into 14 equal balls. Flour your working surface.
• With the help of a floured rolling pin, flatten each ball into a thin circle. It does not have to be perfect. * I suggest that you roll 2-3 tortillas and cook at the same time. Don’t roll it all then cook or it will stick on your working surface or get dried.
• Lightly grease a non-stick pan and heat on medium.
• Grease one side of the tortilla and place into the skillet. Allow to cook until the bottom surface has a few pale brown spots and the uncooked surface is bubbly. Make sure to control the heat so the tortillas will not burn. Flip to the other side and cook for 5-10 seconds. The tortillas should be nice and soft but have a few small brown spots on the surface.
• Remove from the pan and stack in a covered container to keep the tortillas soft and warm.
• Serve with your favorite fillings.
